KEEP NSW SAFE – A SUCCESS STORY

The NSW Government has an obligation to protect all citizens against those who
incite violence.

Keep NSW Safe is a coalition of over 40 religious and cultural groups and
high-profile individuals who successfully lobbied the New South Wales government
to make incitement to violence a crime.

The coalition was formed in August 2016 with the objective of reforming Section
20d of the NSW Anti Discrimination Act and making incitement to violence on the
basis of race, religion, gender, sexuality and a number of other categories a
crime.

Keep NSW Safe ran a strong media campaign, as well as holding over 150 meetings
with members of parliament, political leaders, think tanks and NGOs. In June
2018 NSW Attorney-General Mark Speakman announced that he would bring a Bill to
parliament that would make it a crime to “publicly threaten or incite violence”
on the grounds of race, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, gender
identity and intersex or HIV/AIDS status. The Bill passed unanimously through
both houses of parliament.

Keep NSW Safe is an outstanding example of intercultural coalition-building in
action. It demonstrates that working together for the common good can have a
tangible, positive impact for all the people of NSW.

The campaign was spearheaded by the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies, with its
then-CEO, Vic Alhadeff, serving as spokesperson for Keep NSW Safe. New CEO
Darren Bark now serves as spokesperson.
